Digestive / Gut Health
The carbs in bananas are really easy to break down and are packed with nutrients that aid gut health. Another remarkable health benefit of bananas is that Butyrate, which is the result of bacterial fermentation of the resistant starch in unripe bananas, positively impacts gut health.
Also, bananas contain dietary fibers such as resistant starch and pectin, which is known to aid digestion and help food move easily through your digestive system and it constitutes the bulk of your stool. For this reason, bananas (ripe) are your best option when battling constipation.
